The Oakland Raiders have locked down another veteran in their ongoing roster rebuild.

The team announced Monday that it has signed former San Francisco 49ers cornerback Carlos Rogers. The Raiders offered visual proof via social media:

Rogers will turn 33 in July and is entering his 11th NFL season. He spent the last three seasons with the San Francisco 49ers, starting all 48 regular-season games he appeared in under Jim Harbaugh. Rogers saw his role diminished in the postseason following a hamstring injury and was cut three weeks ago in a move that created $5.1 million in cap space for San Francisco.

Rogers represents another short-term fix for general manager Reggie McKenzie. With Tarell Brown and D.J. Hayden locked into roles on the outside, expect Rogers to do most of his work out of the slot.

The Raiders are better. Yes they added talent, but this offseason is like a handbook in how to spend money just to spend money. Compare what the Raiders did to the Broncos. The Broncos signed pretty young, still in their prime players, that their former team would've loved to keep. I'm trying to think of the player Oakland signed that their former team wasn't like, meh, go ahead, we're fine. Brown maybe?

Well when you have 70 million to spend you have to spend money to spend money. I don't think they've signed any bad contracts short front loaded deals don't kill teams.

Which young, in their prime players did the Donks sign? I must have missed those signings.

Oakland signed some vets, who still should have a couple good years left, and didnt' break the bank signing them. Oakland looks to have similar cap room next offseason as well. How about the Chiefs? Well, giving a player like Bowe over 11 mill per season is hamstringing your ability to sign players to fill the gaps in your squad.

The Broncos signed TJ Ward and Emmanuel Sanders, both ascending players just entering their primes...

The Raiders had to spend the money... Don't give me the "At least they are trying" bullshit...

Agreed. I'm not saying the Raiders aren't better, but they HAD to spend money. And they got a bunch of people you can say, hey, I know his name, about. They had a few savvy signings, but most seem like they are about 4 years too late.
